Cholera Epidemic in Haiti

SOIL (the organization I worked with in Haiti in August) is doing great work to help prevent the spread of cholera in Haiti.

Read about it here if you're interested!

Article about Sam Harris, the guy whose book I'm responding to

I just read this article about Sam Harris and thought it was good:

http://www.newsweek.com/2010/10/18/atheist-sam-harris-steps-into-the-light.html

My book is a response to his books, so I'm glad that his do so well (keeping my fingers crossed for mine!) and that mine can still come out in a timely matter compared to his!

GRE

I'm about to head out to take the GRE. Feels weird to be doing that - it has been just over 5 years since I originally took it, and hence the need to take it again!

I need it for my application to Columbia University's Earth and Environmental Engineering Ph.D. program. Sounds pretty cool, huh! Ok, at least it does to me.
